TESORO HIGH SCHOOL

The mission of the Visual and Performing Arts Department at Tesoro High School is to provide every student with meaningful opportunities to engage in the creative process through visual arts, theatre, and music . We believe that creativity is sparked through personal experiences in making, analyzing, and performing art.Through a comprehensive curriculum aligned with the California State Framework, students will explore the arts through key areas such as artistic perception, creative expression, historical and cultural context, and aesthetic valuing. Whether students are new to the arts or have prior experience, our goal is to deliver high-quality instruction that both meets their needs and challenges them to grow artistically.For those students who are passionate about pursuing the arts professionally, Tesoro offers a range of advanced courses and specialized training to help them achieve their goals. However, our primary commitment is to foster creativity in all students, equipping them with the imagination, critical thinking, and artistic confidence to bring a creative spirit to all aspects of their lives.
